House Bill 2866 amends the Government Code to create a temporary provision, set to expire in 2015, to authorize the attorney general to charge and collect a nonrefundable administrative convenience fee for the electronic submission of a document to the attorney general.
House Bill 2866 establishes that when a statutory provision relating to attorney general decisions requires a document to be given to the attorney general within a specified period, the requirement is met if the document is submitted through the attorney general's designated electronic filing system within that period. The bill authorizes the attorney general to transmit a document electronically and establishes that when the attorney general is required to deliver a document within a specified period, the requirement is met if the document is electronically transmitted within that period.
